Ideas for the Future of Wreckfest 2

[CasePringle]

I heard the creators of the game wanted feedback from the community to mold the game. I am hoping that a Dev will see this post and bring up some ideas for consideration.

A little background on me, I am a long time fan of chaotic racing games like Wreckfest, the Flatout series, The Motorstorm series, and the Burnout series. My favorites being Wreckfest Flatout2, and Motorstorm Apocalypse. The way I prefer to play games is Coop play with a friend against AI in custom races/games modes.

Going forward from Wreckfest to Wreckfest2 I would love to see online & splitscreen play with Bots in custom games. Additionally, I wish custom races could have more settings to play with. Such as: a tournament/gauntlet style options like the career had. Additionally, I wish there was a specific car selection options for what is allowed for players and AI to choose from. For example in Wreckfest: only the RS cars or Runner Rs and the Raven only. Instead of just the more broad categories same as player, derby, and special etc. I hope they keep team races. Even adding that to multiplayer and demo derbies. Speaking of Ai, I love the wide variety of names you gave the AI. I would love for you to add some more consistency with them from a character view point. As one who plays more on custom games than anything else, I view the other drivers as characters vs just AI. I like to create lore and bonds with them. an excellent example would be Flatout2. The characters had a small bio, color scheme, and used the same car and car types throughout the career. Which allowed me to make up lore about the drivers such as Rivalries, relationships, etc. Which makes the games more fun, adding stakes etc. Maybe some drivers behave more conservatively while others behave more aggressively.

Jumping from custom play and AI to the feel of the cars. Granite, I havn't played Wreckfest2 yet! I hope it feels less "slidey." or at least have the option to adjust your car to your play style more effectively. I like the more grip orientated racing like GP style of racing. But it would be fun to do a drift style of race and anything in between.

A few last things to think about. I love the idea of random races (a new car each lap), build your own track races like "make your way," and crazy track obstacles like severe acts of nature or swinging pendulums.

I hope the explanation is clear enough to understand. Does anyone else agree with these ideas?
